You probably didn’t realise exactly what pressures and stresses you were going to experience when you started out in business. Sounding familiar? I definitely wasn’t prepared early on for the onslaught of business growth by a long shot!

As a Business Coach and Mentor, you’ll often hear me talking about striking a balance in life that keeps you operating at high-performance levels consistently. A part of this means setting personal goals and challenges that push me right outside of my comfort zone.

I’ll be honest and say my latest challenge last weekend was a little more than I expected!

You’ve done the hard work, spent years building a business and have gained great momentum and traction. You’ve stepped up your game and have a stable foundation – but now you just can’t seem to push it through to the next level.

Having taken a fantastic hiking trip up to Snowdonia in North Wales a few weeks ago I thought I’d share with you something that’s absolutely essential to the successful running of my life and business.

For many people, they work hard at the coalface in order to get away from it all. Whether that’s the annual family holiday to sun and sand or a caravan trip for the weekend, in our British culture we seem to constantly strive to ‘get away’.

So you’ve spent hours building your own business website or paid thousands to a web designer to get you started. Looks good, gives a good impression but it just isn’t generating you the business you expected! Problem 101!

It’s been an incredible journey so far. From a vision 10 years ago where business owners could access a synchronised and inter-linked range of services that focused on business growth to the proven results and returns we are delivering for each of our great clients today across design, marketing, consultancy and business intelligence.
